Porsche Paranoia?


Question for 10 points!!?


4 cylinder? 6 cylinder? I own a 2000 2.5L (4 cyl) 2WD Standard, and I was getting around 18mpg city/ 24mpg hwy. I raised the vehicle 3" beside a suspension lift and put on 31" tires and expected the mileage to go down. It if truth be told went up. Even though the aerodynamics cause more of a drag, by putting on bigger tires, it cause my RPM's to drop from about 3000 RPM at 70mph, to around 2200 RPM. I did not change out the backside gears (I was going to until I noticed I be getting BETTER gas mileage) and now I am getting a little over 28mpg hwy. I'm a moment ago a tad under 18mpg city, but that is expected near the extra weight of the tires, especially on a 4cyl. Your driving habits are also going to influence that number. I hold a heavy foot, but when I drove like a grandpa and shifted sooner than average, I got a little more than 30mpg. I also hold my vehicle well maintained (all fluids changed when they are suppose to be, tires rotated and impartial every 6000-7500 miles, and I only use quality gas). hopefully this give you some insight.

What is cause this electronics problem?



Answers:    Depends on the engine and transmission

It can go from 15 MPG to almost 30 MPG.
